The rod is used to sustain the welding arc and to provide the filler metal required for the joint to be welded. The coating protects the metal from damage, stabilizes the arc, and improves the weld. The diameter of the wire, less the coating, determines the size of the welding rod. This is expressed in fractions of an inch such as 3\/32\", 1\/8\", or 5\/32.\" The smaller the diameter means it requires less current and it deposits a smaller amount of filler metal.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e These are a pound (1lb) of 14\" Mild Steel Stick Electrodes with 5\/32\" Diameter, E6010 AWS Classification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh deposition rates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmooth bead appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimal spatter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShallow penetration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge welds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlightly downhill (15° max) positions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple pass welding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWelding Positions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlat\/Horizontal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Steel and Pipes Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40958075535420,"sku":"219.10.00089","price":1.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/core.steelandpipes.com\/products\/west-arco-mild-steel-stick-electrode","provider":"SteelandPipesofFloridaLLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
